Haiti Relief
| This January the world was shocked and saddened to hear of the earthquake that occurred in Haiti. The natural disaster created an unfathomable amount of destruction across the country leaving many without food, water and homes. Worse yet, the death toll from this catastrophe is expected to climb into the hundreds of thousands over the next few weeks.
Organizations such as The World Food Program, UNICEF, The International Organization for Migration, and The UN Population Fund have jumped into action to assist with disaster relief, but they are in need of additional funding and resources to help with their efforts. Number 9 strongly encourages everyone to donate to one of these agencies and help out a country that is in dire need of assistance. |

To assist with the relief efforts, Number 9 will be donating a portion of its profits to the Canadian Red Cross. The Canadian Red Cross collects funds to meet the immediate relief and long-term recovery needs of disaster survivors in Haiti and around the world. We are proud to support this well respected organization, and hope to contribute a significant amount over the coming weeks.
